    20 x Nerite Snails (Small-Medium-Large Assorted)
    10 x Blue Legged Hermit Crabs
    1 x Limpet
    1 x Fuzzy Chiton

    Fuge will now be happy too...

    5 x Red Mangroves
    1 x Graciliaria

    Display Tank Macros...

    1 x Codium
    1 x Flame Algae (waiting on this one from Reefcleaners)


    ::)::)

    John from Reefcleaners is great to work with for those that have yet to order with them. As for pricing, it was unmatched to any LFS or other online order I could have placed.

    Ill post pics once I am done acclimating. I am following the acclimation procedure at the moment, and have about 10 more minutes of bag-temp acclimation before I can start putting the little fellars in the tank.

    To date I have 5 hermits, 5 astrea snails, and a turbo snail. So it'll be interesting to see how fast the algae on the side glass, rocks, etc get cleaned up.

    hermits are hermits, they all have pretty much the same diet and behavior. some exceptions, but they are based on sized (behavior), and in some cases diet (hair leg hermits eat aiptasia) - but 99% of the time hermits are hermits.

    Thanks bje!
